Re: How to upgrade Tomcat from 5.5 to 6.0 on BusinessObjects XI 3.1 SP5

Dear Puneet,

Here are the steps to upgrade from Tomcatxx to Tomcat yy:

The below steps are for upgrading default 5.5.20 tomcat to a higher
incremental release of tomcat.

This method is not intended in an upgrade from default 5.5.20 to a major
release version such as tomcat 6 or 7.

1. Stop the Tomcat
2. Run the script ./tomcatshutdown.sh in bobje directory.
3. Rename bobje/Tomcat to tomcat_bak.Command: mv bobje/Tomcat
   tomcat_bak
4. Download tomcat 5.5.xx core tgz file from Apache website to bobje/tomcat and
   extract using the command: tar -xvf tgz filename
5. Create new folder apache-tomcat-5.5.xx.Command:mkdir apache-tomcat-5.5.xx
6. Rename folder apache-tomcat-5.5.xx to Tomcat55 using the move command
7. Go to the deployment directory which is one level above bobje.
8. Run the script ./wdeploy.sh tomcat55 deployall
9. Message:"Build Successful"
10. Run the script ./tomcatstartup.sh to start the Tomcat.
